Notorious North Korean Hacker Group Lazarus Suspected Of Laundering $35M From The Infamous $305M DMM Bitcoin Heist
In a major revelation, the notorious North Korean hacker group, Lazarus, is suspected of laundering over $35 million from the infamous hack of Japanese cryptocurrency exchange DMM Bitcoin.
根據消息,臭名昭著的朝鮮黑客組織Lazarus涉嫌從日本加密貨幣交易所DMm Bitcoin的惡名高達3500萬美元的黑客攻擊中洗錢。
What Happened: According to on-chain detective ZachXBT, the hackers behind the $305 million exploit allegedly laundered funds through a Cambodian online marketplace, Huione Guarantee, reportedly linked to Cambodia's ruling Hun family.
據區塊鏈偵探ZachXBt稱,攻擊價值30500萬美元的黑客背後的人據稱通過柬埔寨在線市場Huione Guarantee洗錢,該市場據傳與柬埔寨執政的洪家有關。
"It is suspected that Lazarus Group is behind the hack due to similarities in laundering techniques and off-chain indicators," ZachXBT stated.
ZachXBt聲稱:“由於洗錢技術和離線因素的相似之處,據推測Lazarus Group可能是黑客背後的幕後黑手。”

Citing a report by blockchain analytics firm Elliptic, the cryptocurrency sleuth said that Huione has become the preferred money laundering service provider for criminal groups in Southeast Asia, clocking an estimated $11 billion in transaction volume.
引用區塊鏈分析公司Elliptic的報告,這位加密貨幣調查人員表示,Huione已成爲東南亞犯罪團伙首選的洗錢服務提供商,交易量達110億美元。
Why It Matters: Japan-based DMM Bitcoin lost $305 million in Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) after a critical vulnerability was exploited in May. The cryptocurrency exchange raised $320 million about a week later to compensate users for the losses.
對此的影響:總部位於日本的DMm比特幣在五月份因關鍵漏洞而失去了30500萬美元的比特幣(加密貨幣:BTC)。約一週後,這家加密貨幣交易所籌集了3200萬美元來賠償用戶的損失。
This is not the first time the Lazarus Group has been linked to large-scale cryptocurrency theft. The notorious gang, alleged to be run by the government of North Korea, laundered $13 million worth of Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) through a cryptocurrency mixer, Tornado Cash, earlier in March, despite U.S. sanctions.
這不是Lazarus Group第一次與大規模加密貨幣盜竊有關。據稱這個臭名昭著的團伙由朝鮮政府運行,早在3月份就通過一個名爲Tornado Cash的加密貨幣混合器洗了1300萬美元的以太坊(加密貨幣:ETH),儘管美國實施了制裁。
According to a report, the group reportedly stole over $1 billion in cryptocurrency assets in 2023, targeting a record 20 platforms.
據一份報告稱,該團伙在2023年共盜竊了超過10億美元的加密貨幣資產,共盯上了20個平台。
